When we arrived in Sydney, I was exhausted and feeling about as sexy as day-old underwear. Which, as it happened, I was wearing. I couldn’t wait to get to the hotel, shower and change into fresh clothes. A car waited for us, which made me feel super fancy and important. Even though he was exhausted, too, Will insisted on hauling my luggage into the trunk.

The hotel was a plush, five-star situation with lots of windows and exotic plants. Will booked us a suite, which felt like our own little home away from home. It had separate bedrooms, a large bathroom, a lounge area, and a small kitchen.

I told him I wanted a shower, and I half expected him to join me. He didn’t. When I emerged, dressed and clean, I felt both better and worse. I found Will in the living area, his laptop open in front of him and a big frown on his profile.

“Everything okay?” I asked as I approached. I caught sight of what appeared to be an email, one line catching my attention, I miss you so much. He closed the laptop before I had a chance to read more. Something in my chest tightened, but I told myself it was probably just from one of his family members. Surely, he was missed, living so far away and all.

Will ran a hand through his hair, stress lines marring his forehead. “Fine. I’m going to shower. Do you mind ordering some room service? I was going to order for you, but—”

“I never mind ordering room service.” I gave him a wide smile.

He gave me one of his small smiles in return, but it was strained, then he disappeared inside the bathroom. I grabbed the menu, trying to decide what to order, my chest still tight. Will’s demeanor was definitely off.

Was that email from his ex-girlfriend? The one from seven years ago? Was she trying to get him back? And could I ask him about it? I mean, that was my job, right? To be nosey? To ask.

Man, we hadn’t even started having sex and already things felt complicated.

I forced my attention back to the menu and decided I’d eat my anxiety away with a slice of Victoria sponge cake.

So much for cutting out carbs.
